Trump Wants to Challenge Joe Biden to Take a Cognitive Exam, and It's an Epic Idea
PJ Media ^ | 06/24/2020 | Matt Margolis

If you’ve ever watched Joe Biden speak, it’s quite clear that he’s not exactly all there. Despite the apparent impairment of his mental faculties, he’s managed to secure the Democratic nomination over his so-called electability. But, did Democrat primary voters overlook his cognitive decline because they were too focused on his perceived electability over his primary opponents? It’s a question worth asking because Joe Biden constantly gives us more reason to ask, and according to a report from the Washington Post, President Trump thinks that Biden should take a simple cognitive test—just like the one he aced in 2018.

According to the Washington Post, during a meeting that took place in early June about his reelection campaign, the ten-minute exam came up and Trump expressed his belief that Joe Biden would never be able to pass it and suggested that he should publicly challenge Joe Biden to take the same test.

Last week, the Trump campaign launched the microsite Barely There Biden, showcasing the many examples of the former vice president being incoherent or forgetting basic information.

Former members of Bernie Sanders’ campaign have suggested that “something might happen at the convention” to prevent Biden from becoming the Democrats’ actual nominee over the Tara Reade sexual assault allegations, or perhaps his mental decline.

With ample documentation suggesting that Joe Biden isn’t mentally fit to serve as president of the United States, it’s actually quite reasonable to ask Biden to take one. He won’t, of course. President Trump has previously accused Biden of hiding from voters to keep his cognitive decline out of sight. He’s also challenged Biden to an expanded debate schedule, something that one would think such a seasoned politician would welcome, but the Biden campaign rejected the challenge,

Of course Biden won't be tested, they already know he's impaired and why. But evn if they did they'd fudge the results....unless of course to their advantage down the road that he is unable to continue or serve as Pres....or they switch out at their convention as some suspect.

I’m not sure why Trump doesn’t understand this.

He thinks if the Democrats create this circus, people will vote for Republicans. But most people don’t care who is right or wrong, they just want normalcy.

We shouldn’t stand in Joe’s way until after the Democratic Convention.

Joe is a nearly perfect jackass.

Is it too soon to dispatch him though?
The last thing we want is for the Dems to come up
with a better candidate.

Admittedly their bench is real thin.

First, someone will have to get out the crayons and explain to Joe what a 'cognitive exam' is.

I tend to agree. I think shortly after the convention...fake heart-attack for Joe Biden will be announced, and the VP moves up a notch.

I heard recently that Biden is a stutterer and that his odd pauses, seeming forgetfulness (like when he didn't use Obama’s name in one interview) and other quirks are coping mechanisms to avoid things he known he will stutter. I don't believe it, but that's an excuse the Dems are starting to put forward - he's not senile, he just has a speech impediment.

No doubt Biden’s cognitive decline should be an ongoing focus of the campaign, but they need to get creative and make sure they have their ducks lined up.

You may be right. None of this is just happening on its own. Look how quickly the 'Rats cleared the field for Biden, compared to the 2016 debacle. I mean, one or two primaries and Bernie is outta there. That doesn't "just happen".

Look to the VP pick. That is who the 'Rats really want to be President. Biden is just a stalking horse. There's always the 25th amendment or resignation to get him out in favor of the VP.

Hello Seek!

Now that is an epic idea!

Lots of us would pay good money to watch that! I know I would!

IIRC, Trump took it as part of one of his physicals and passed it with flying colors.

Indeed, Joe should take it but he won't.

I sure hope this is a bluff. Crazy Joe might be so arrogant that he would take it. There is a fine line here. It Pedo Joe would actually be deemed senile, he would be replaced by the DNC. We want Sleepy Joe to run all the way up to November. Wait until Slow Joe is campaigning full time and hope he is just coherent enough to fool most of the Democrats. Republicans, Independents and some Democrats will not be fooled and will make a majority for Trump. All that is needed is to let Asshole Joe talk.

A Biden ad running now on YouTube is actually more than a little disturbing. It’s a professionally made ad, so it was probably shot with multiple takes and editing. He still can’t get out a sentence without fumbling it, and you have to believe that they went with the best take. At first I thought it was a parody; no, it’s was the best they could do with him.

You have to remember Joe was always a really, really stupid man
..............................................
Back in the day as I recall, it was fairly common to hear Biden referred to as the dumbest person in the Senate.

All I’m saying is don’t underestimate the Stupidity of the American People.

Good point. 50% of Americans have below average IQs.

With all the death and destruction being fomented by the American left, I am surprised no one is pushing for Bernie to replace Biden as the rat candidate.

I believe the others are correct. Either the ‘rats are planning some bait-n-switch at the convention, or they’re planning on mainly running their VP pick.

I believe the entire leadership of the ‘rat party are puppets under the control of Soros and the other Communists in Brussels and China.
